Require DBS checks for all staff in Soft Play centres.
We want the Government to amend safeguarding legislation so that all staff working in Soft Play environments are required to undergo DBS checks, ensuring consistent child protection standards across all childcare and play settings, and closing what we see as a clear safeguarding gap in current law.
Require DBS checks for all contractors for housing associations and councils
Require DBS checks for all contractors and subcontractors carrying out work for housing associations and councils.
Hold public inquiry on safeguarding system and training in family courts
We think the Family Courts and social services, Cafcass, CPS are failing to safeguard children, overlooking evidence and allowing harmful practices. We want a public inquiry into accountability, what we see as systemic failings and bias, and effects of current procedures on child and family welfare.
Require civil harassment orders to be disclosed in enhanced DBS checks
I’m calling on the government to close the DBS loophole by ensuring civil harassment orders, such as court-issued undertakings, are disclosed on Enhanced DBS checks to better protect children and vulnerable people from individuals under legal restrictions.
Review D&I workplace plans, particularly in emergency services & armed forces
Hold a review on the implementation of diversity, equality and inclusion in the workplace and in particular in the armed forces and emergency services. We are concerned that these initiatives could have an impact on safety and standards.
